Back Health Care — Local services in Boston

Extremely impressed and forever grateful for Gigi's excellent massage and overall service. It was a one hour long massage that was focused primarily on my back but she did my entire body. Before we begin she asked for my concerns and where I wanted her to focus. Gigi made sure to not give me a minute less than what I paid for even though I came in a few minutes late which I really appreciated. She used a light oil for the massage and then hot towels to wipe it off at the end. She also used warm pads to keep me cozy while she was massaging other areas. Gigi is friendly and kind, as well as knowledgeable and experienced-- she really knows what she is doing. I love that she stretched me out and bent my arms and legs in the right positions. Her massage is a great combination of firm but careful. I appreciate she is not like other masseuses that only gently knead and not really make a difference or those who only use their forearms and elbows making it painful. Her technique was perfect. This is by far the best massage I've ever received. I will make sure I get a massage by Gigi every month from now on. After just one session, I can move my head and neck more easily and I also realized just how much I needed this. She really cares and is a strong masseuse. For those new to getting a massage, I highly recommend Back Health Care Center. The price is very reasonable especially in comparison to the other places in the area. For reference I was an athlete all my life I go to the gym regularly and I work a desk job for over eight hours a day so I have a high standard and I was...

I called Gigi on a cold, rainy Saturday at the last minute for a foot massage. She was really accommodating on the phone and had availability. Later, I spent about 5 minutes trying to find the place has mother nature reminded me "winter is coming." Gigi tried to explain over the phone where the entrance was but because of the language barrier, it proved to be more difficult. Here's how to get to her office, if you're on Washington St facing Dunkin's walk under the sign "PI ALLEY," until you reach an alley then turn right then you'll be on Court Square, walk less than a minute and see a gold sign on your right, #15. That's her building. Back to Gigi, cute lil office, she's sweet. She asked me what I wanted special attention on so I mentioned my feet again during this almost one hour massage, she gave my lefty & righty phalanges like 5 minutes of attention. The overall massage was honestly okay, $90/HR....I suppose wasn't the worst but...

I’m a full-time athlete and I have been to plenty of sports massage sessions. Looking for a good and affordable one in Boston was a real challenge since I moved here that it made me avoid sports massage altogether because of how I can’t find a therapist who helps me sort my problems. I only had one session with Gigi and that was because I was preparing for a half marathon but my legs were feeling heavy and desperately needed a massage. I found Gigi, found her clinic easily in the city and had one of the best massages in my life. She asked which area I wanted to focus on which were my legs but she did my whole body, which I was grateful for because the overall lightness I felt when I left her clinic was amazing. She did mention that I would be sore the next day, which I was, but I felt very ready for the half marathon in the next 3 days. Exactly what I needed. Also, one of the most affordable sessions...
